ABSTRACT
This chapter examines the treaty between the Allied powers and Bulgaria signed at Neuilly-sur-Seine. In conjunction with the other treaties, the treaty of Neuilly makes a shift in the balance of power in southeastern Europe and the Balkans. The treaty of Neuilly purposes a state of Balkans and Europe that does not exist as European diplomacy believes that the race is to the swift and the battle to be strong. The avowed intention of the territorial and military provisions of the treaty of Neuilly was to render Bulgaria powerless to make another attempt to upset treaties drawn to disadvantage. Justification of despoiling Bulgaria, runs through the claims of the other Balkan states and it is the answer of the Allied powers to the Bulgarian observations on the treaty. The treaty contains a special article in which Bulgaria renounced the principal allied and associated powers portion of Thrace, which won the first Balkan War and not from the treaty of Bukharest.
